Sorry but in the end this discussion can IMO lead nowhere!
Hi,
Sorry but I have to close that thread as it is definitely about value and not about passion for watches!
Furthermore you can make all the assumptions you want about the market but in the end you can't say, see, or forecast what will come tomorrow!
Experts in that field are generally recognized as those who say today what will happen tomorrow, and then will say tomorrow why they were wrong today! 
Life is a bet! My bet has been for long to live my passion as much as I could! I'm not going to try to find a rationale behind my choice! That's my choice!
We can't help you make your decision and I fear that we don't want to help you for such decision.
Thank you for your understanding.
Cheers
